When I heard that the Stanton Warriors were going to do a classic breakbeat set I was so excited to dig into my record collection and play some of my favorite tunes from 1995-2005.  This night was amazing on so many levels and I am happy that I was able to record this momentous occasion.  

Pro DJ tip:  It is a faux pas to play the headliners music which is why there were no Stanton Warriors tracks in my mix.

Hello Friends! On this week’s RIPEcast we have our very own Rumblemunk with his epic set of heavy beats and bass from Breakfast of Champions x It’s A New Day 2023. Here’s some word from Rumblemunk about the mix: 

“Upon listening to the recording of my set, I learned that I had skipped AN ENTIRE TRACK. Since all tracks are critical to a set, I had to re-record. Here is the best version of what I intended on that beautiful clear evening with you all. It’s a busload of the best breakbeats I found in 2022, plus 5 (!) original productions from years past.”

My first mix released as part of the Faultline crew, highlighting all the aspects of the breakbeat genre that I love - from piano stabs and funky synths to bumpin' baselines and heavy bass, the broken beats have it all. Turn it up and enjoy! And be sure to come dance with us for Faultline's quarterly parties at Underground SF.

Today we take a look back to the early 2000's when Breaks were Nu again and the sound shifted from the "Florida" sound to the "UK" sound.  Faultline's good friend Handsome Dodger lays down an hour mix of all vinyl Old School Nu Skool Breaks.
